Description

Hello! I'm Gioia, Italian, 43 yo :)

I'm passionate about independent travelling, discovering remote cultures, learning and teaching yoga and languages. I am currently in the Philippines.

I studied education and anthropology, in my country I work as a primary school teacher. I have some experience as a waitress and farmer. I have a TEFL diploma for teaching English and I recently completed a 200h Yoga Teacher Training Course in India.

I love volunteering, as a way to immerse in the life of local communities and to share knowledge and energies. In the past few years, I've had very fulfilling volunteering experiences, teaching English in two rural schools in Myanmar and Nepal and helping out in goat/sheep farms in France and Italy. Such experiences have enriched me and taught me a lot.

I enjoy working in the outdoors, I practice yoga, dance and aerial disciplines, diving and freediving. I'm a precise, adaptable, caring person; I'm good at taking care of and working in contact with people; I'd like to gain experience as a yoga trainer and in customer care in hostels and other tourism facilities. I'm ready to share my skills in yoga, child care, customer care, teaching, farming and I'm ready to engage in any type of physical work and learn new skills.

Looking forward to put myself on the line and hoping to meet you soon! :)
